SMP NAMED WINNER OF THE ROCHESTER D&C 2018 TOP WORKPLACES AWARD FOR A 5TH CONSECUTIVE YEAR

(Rochester, NY – April 2, 2018) SMP has been awarded a 2018 Top Workplaces honor by The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. This will be the fifth year in a row that SMP has achieved this status, every year since the inception of the award. The list is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by research partner Energage, LLC (formerly WorkplaceDynamics). The anonymous survey measures several aspects of workplace culture, including alignment, execution, and connection, just to name a few.
